" HARD ON PORTLAND - THE Morsn are not to get the con tract to build the fire boat for Port land, notwithstanding the fart that theirs was the lowest bid. They ajrreed to build a steel boat cheaper than the Portland builders could build one with a wooden bull, but still they are not to pet the, contract. The reason is very simple. If the contract went to Moraiw there would be no graft for anybody. A public contract without a graft would be txn inalmlssible novelty in Port land Seattle P. I. THE price In hops in Salem Is sop ping, twenty cents having been offered for the 190J crop. Better pour some more beer In the gutter over there. IT Is reported In Astoria that Walter Lyon and Otis Patterson, who have bought the Astorian newspaper prop erty of ihat city, from Samuel Elmore, paid JK500 for it. That Is a good field for a lively newspaper, and the plant, franchises and good will are worth the sum paid, and can be made worth three of four times the amount. But it will take work, and a great deal of It, and the new proprietors will not find suc cess in this field is easy as drawing a salary for holding down a public office --or most public offices.

The late Archbishop Corrigan'a lay frioiuls endeavored persistently during many years to Induce Pope Leo to give him a cardinal s hat, but there w is a party in the church which as earnestly opposed him arl he died without the coveted honor. If he did cov et It. It Is -i id that the same influence will be brought on the new head of the church In favor of Archbishop Farley. Weathy Catholics think that New York is entitled to the honor of having a cardinal, as It Is one of the very rich est dioceses in the world, and contrib utes most generously to the Papal treasury. There are those who predict, however, that not New York but Min neapolis will have the next American ardinnl In the person of Archbishop Ireland. THE Corbett-Jeffries mill Is over. The regatta next.

The United States cruiser Chicago, second of the warships participating in the Interna tional festivities at Kiel, Lisbon and Portsmouth, to arrive home. Is now an chored in the bay. " The Chicago had made 2950 miles from Lisbon, from where she cleared August 1, In 12 days and two hours. This was done while running undo only five of her 10 boilers, and the ship arrived in port in condition to stai out again at a moment's notice for fllve' days more, for she had used only 560 ton? of oal on the voyage out of her to tal capacity of S50 tons. The trip across was made on "the great circular route" and whi'e four days of thick fog Inter fered somewhawlth the time record, the Chicago had generally calm weath er, with a !ngle day of heavy sea. Captain Cornwall told something ot the personal side of the meeting. fit Kiel with Emperor William, at London, and with King Edward and Queen Al exandra and at Lisbon with King Charles and Queen Amelia of Portugal. Emperor William was cordial to the last d-r?r," said the captain, "and so v. as Priri"- Henry. The emperor show ed himself a remarkkable man if in no other way than by the manner in which he inspected theKearsarge and the far 'eeing questions whic h he asked about all the working parts of the vessel. "' n:e of the most charming occasions of the vho!e viit to Kiel was the day we spent en the emperor's yacht Meteor at th race. There we met him in the most informal way and he showed him-o-!f as the courteous host entertaining party of friends. Nothing could havt leH-n more delightful or better lcu ited to express his evident friendship fcr the American people. Also, I may r'ircrk that th emperor h more than fen i of a good story, and can tell on hini-lf in a capital style."
